Exactly, so some will like some aspects, while others hate it. The calendar represents that - and it always has.[/quote]

The only thing I hate about the calendar is I wish the TWD were moved around to create more full weeks. That is something that could have been done. Next year Rosh Hashanah, Diwali and another holiday are on a weekend. Each year it will change. Everyone needs to relax. Loudoun and APS have less days in school. [/quote]

But the TWD are tied to the end of the quarter, so they can’t really moved, unless you move the start date up a week. And the ones not tied to the quarter end are on Veterans Day and Indigenous Peoples Day.[/quote]

They could have extended quarter 1 one week and moved one TWD to Monday  of Election Day week and and then made ED a holiday. That would make the full week before election day. They could have made Columbus/Indigenous day a school day instead and moved the March workday to attach to the end of a quarter. I am a teacher and the teacher workdays at the end of each quarter are the most useful. I also think they should make certain TWD moveable so in the case of snow, we can get a day back. [/quote]
